[U-Boot] Support required for PPC440gx

[U-Boot] Support required for PPC440gx

[Sadashiva Reddy N]

Hi Sir,


I am Sadashiva Reddy working in Mistral Solutions Pvt Ltd.

I am using AMCC PPC440Gx processor for our project presently the board is
working with vxWorks.
But our customer new requirement is same board should be ported with linux
but porting time is very less.

So, I am asking the help from you.

 Where do I get proper U-boot and kernel source code for the below
mentioned specification or nearly related board specfication from your
website.

Can I get any link where I can get the working u-boot and kernel code for
the below specification or near to the specfication.

Board sprecification details are.

1. Proccessor = PPC440gx
2. NOR flash = Size 128MB
3. SDRAM = 256 MB
4. PHY = RGMII
5. UART = RS 232
6. FRAM or EEPROM = 2KB
7. VC0 = 1333 MHz
8. SysClock = 33.33 MHz Feedback is CPU core clock.
9. Memclock = 133.33 MHz
10. OPBClcok = 66.66 MHz
11. PerClock = 66.66 MHz



Best Regards,
Sadashiv

No, I'm afraid its not that easy. You seem to have a custom PPC440GX
board which is not supported in mainline U-Boot and Linux. So there is
no link to a "working u-boot and kernel code" for such a configuration.
The 440GX is supported in U-Boot and Linux though (even if its not
tested for quite some time). Best you could do is base your work on a
supported 440GX board, for example the IBM/AMCC/AMP Ocotea board. But
you need to port this code to your custom board.

So either go ahead and do the porting yourself (feel free to ask some
questions while doing this on the lists), or if time is critical and you
have no experience here you might consider to hire an expert to do this.

Hope this helps a bit.

Best regards,
Stefan
